In the women’s 5000m Hellen Obiri retained her title in a championship record of 14:26.72 in a pulverising race that saw eleven of those athletes strung out behind her breaking their personal bests.
The Kenyan was suitably rewarded for a run of utter determination from the moment she took the lead towards the end of the second lap - a lead she never relinquished.
Her team-mate Margaret Kipkemboi came through to overtake Konstanze Klosterhalfen in the home straight for silver clocking a personal best of 14:27.49, with the tall, thin German taking a richly earned bronze in 14:28.43.
